DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B GGUF Models

Model Generation Details

Ultra-Low-Bit Quantization with IQ-DynamicGate (1-2 bit)

Benchmark Context

• Standard perplexity evaluation pipeline
• 2048-token context window
• Same prompt set across all quantizations

Method

• Dynamic Precision Allocation:
  • First/Last 25% of layers → IQ4_XS (selected layers)
  • Middle 50% → IQ2_XXS/IQ3_S (increase efficiency)
• Critical Component Protection:
  • Embeddings/output layers use Q5_K
  • Reduces error propagation by 38% vs standard 1-2bit

Quantization Performance Comparison (Llama-3-8B)

• PPL = Perplexity (lower is better)
• Δ PPL = Percentage change from standard to DynamicGate
• Speed = Inference time (CPU avx2, 2048 token context)
• Size differences reflect mixed quantization overhead

• 🔥 IQ1_M shows massive 43.9% perplexity reduction (27.46 → 15.41)
• 🚀 IQ2_S cuts perplexity by 36.9% while adding only 0.2GB
• ⚡ IQ1_S maintains 39.7% better accuracy despite 1-bit quantization

• All variants have modest size increases (0.1-0.3GB)
• Inference speeds remain comparable (<5% difference)

When to Use These Models

Choosing the Right Model Format

BF16 (Brain Float 16) – Use if BF16 acceleration is available

• A 16-bit floating-point format designed for faster computation while retaining good precision.
• Provides similar dynamic range as FP32 but with lower memory usage.
• Recommended if your hardware supports BF16 acceleration (check your device's specs).
• Ideal for high-performance inference with reduced memory footprint compared to FP32.

F16 (Float 16) – More widely supported than BF16

• A 16-bit floating-point high precision but with less of range of values than BF16.
• Works on most devices with FP16 acceleration support (including many GPUs and some CPUs).
• Slightly lower numerical precision than BF16 but generally sufficient for inference.

Quantized Models (Q4_K, Q6_K, Q8, etc.) – For CPU & Low-VRAM Inference

• Lower-bit models (Q4_K) → Best for minimal memory usage, may have lower precision.
• Higher-bit models (Q6_K, Q8_0) → Better accuracy, requires more memory.

Very Low-Bit Quantization (IQ3_XS, IQ3_S, IQ3_M, Q4_K, Q4_0)

• IQ3_XS: Ultra-low-bit quantization (3-bit) with extreme memory efficiency.
  • Use case: Best for ultra-low-memory devices where even Q4_K is too large.
  • Trade-off: Lower accuracy compared to higher-bit quantizations.
• IQ3_S: Small block size for maximum memory efficiency.
  • Use case: Best for low-memory devices where IQ3_XS is too aggressive.
• IQ3_M: Medium block size for better accuracy than IQ3_S.
  • Use case: Suitable for low-memory devices where IQ3_S is too limiting.
• Q4_K: 4-bit quantization with block-wise optimization for better accuracy.
  • Use case: Best for low-memory devices where Q6_K is too large.
• Q4_0: Pure 4-bit quantization, optimized for ARM devices.
  • Use case: Best for ARM-based devices or low-memory environments.

  • Automated Nmap scans
  • Quantum-readiness checks
  • Network Monitoring tasks

• ✅ Zero-configuration setup
• ⏳ 30s load time (slow inference but no API costs)
• 🔧 Help wanted! If you’re into edge-device AI, let’s collaborate!

Other Assistants

• Create custom cmd processors to run .net code on Quantum Network Monitor Agents
• Real-time network diagnostics and monitoring
• Security Audits
• Penetration testing (Nmap/Metasploit)

• 🌐 Runs on Hugging Face Inference API

💡 Example commands to you could test:

1. "Give me info on my websites SSL certificate"
2. "Check if my server is using quantum safe encyption for communication"
3. "Run a comprehensive security audit on my server"
4. '"Create a cmd processor to .. (what ever you want)" Note you need to install a Quantum Network Monitor Agent to run the .net code from. This is a very flexible and powerful feature. Use with caution!

'''# The following contents are the search results related to the user's message:
{search_results}
In the search results I provide to you, each result is formatted as [webpage X begin]...[webpage X end], where X represents the numerical index of each article. Please cite the context at the end of the relevant sentence when appropriate. Use the citation format [citation:X] in the corresponding part of your answer. If a sentence is derived from multiple contexts, list all relevant citation numbers, such as [citation:3][citation:5]. Be sure not to cluster all citations at the end; instead, include them in the corresponding parts of the answer.
When responding, please keep the following points in mind:
- Today is {cur_date}.
- Not all content in the search results is closely related to the user's question. You need to evaluate and filter the search results based on the question.
- For listing-type questions (e.g., listing all flight information), try to limit the answer to 10 key points and inform the user that they can refer to the search sources for complete information. Prioritize providing the most complete and relevant items in the list. Avoid mentioning content not provided in the search results unless necessary.
- For creative tasks (e.g., writing an essay), ensure that references are cited within the body of the text, such as [citation:3][citation:5], rather than only at the end of the text. You need to interpret and summarize the user's requirements, choose an appropriate format, fully utilize the search results, extract key information, and generate an answer that is insightful, creative, and professional. Extend the length of your response as much as possible, addressing each point in detail and from multiple perspectives, ensuring the content is rich and thorough.
- If the response is lengthy, structure it well and summarize it in paragraphs. If a point-by-point format is needed, try to limit it to 5 points and merge related content.
- For objective Q&A, if the answer is very brief, you may add one or two related sentences to enrich the content.
- Choose an appropriate and visually appealing format for your response based on the user's requirements and the content of the answer, ensuring strong readability.
- Your answer should synthesize information from multiple relevant webpages and avoid repeatedly citing the same webpage.
- Unless the user requests otherwise, your response should be in the same language as the user's question.
